Scientists at the Center for Molecular Biology of Heidelberg University have gained new insight into the process of mitosis in mammalian cells. Researchers under the direction of Prof. Dr. Frauke ...

Conly Rieder and colleagues demonstrated in 1995 that one unattached chromosome is sufficient to prevent sister chromatid separation in mitosis.

Researchers from the European Molecular Biology Laboratory (EMBL; Hamburg division, Germany) have created a 4D computer model for mitosis, allowing for the real-time tracking of the proteins involved.

Cell division ensures growth or renewal and is thus vital for all organisms. However, the process differs somewhat in animals, bacteria, fungi, plants, and algae. Until now, little was known about ...

When somatic cells enter mitosis, they reorganize their microtubule cytoskeleton to form a bipolar structure called the mitotic spindle on which duplicated chromosomes are segregated.

Visualise the steps of mitosis and interact with them in this BBC Bitesize activity written to the Edexcel GCSE Combined Science specification.
